Modern Era
Today, Yardley London is one of England’s oldest and most established purveyors of quality perfumes, soaps and toiletries, after Floris of London in London, England and Creed (perfume) formerly of London, England. Steeped in a 242 year heritage, Yardley London is a quintessentially English fragrance brand and prides itself on offering authentic and credible quality floral fragrances and ancillary body products. Yardley London prides itself on its two Royal warrants and since 1921 has been awarded 6 Royal warrants.
Currently, its product range consists of perfume, bath and body luxuries, skin care, and hair care products. The colour cosmetics range of Yardley has been discontinued, with the exception of Yardley London, South Africa which is owned by Coty, and still produces a complete line of cosmetics, nail and skin care products, in addition to a number of fragrances for both men and women.

Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or era:
“The ancients of the ideal description, instead of trying to turn their impracticable chimeras, as does the modern dreamer, into social and political prodigies, deposited them in great works of art, which still live while states and constitutions have perished, bequeathing to posterity not shameful defects but triumphant successes.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“The fantasies inspired by TB in the last century, by cancer now, are responses to a disease thought to be intractable and capricious—that is, a disease not understood—in an era in which medicine’s central premise is that all diseases can be cured.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
